[tk] Egg Avatar · **Released**: 03-13-2009

A Support Project using the vBulletin Project Tool has been created to support this mod. Please make use of it if you can. Timely support will still be given in this thread, however, use of the project tool is appreciated because:

I paid for it
It makes searching for problems already asked by other users, and possibly solved, much easier than this long thread.
It helps organize and manage issues for me, which will become even more useful as I release more mods.

Description:
Ever want to throw something at someone when you read a post? Now you can! Eggs, kisses, bullets, and more.

Video Demonstration Link

Special Notes:

Due to some complicated issues involving the coding for animated gifs, largely black eggs (like the bullethole) do not display properly. All that is required, if you make or find your own eggs, is that large black areas be converted to a dark grey or dark blue. I've already done this with the newest bullethole.gif, and as you can see it's not a big issue but I wanted to make everyone aware of it.
If you wish to uninstall please upgrade to the lastest version first, as older versions may not uninstall cleanly.

Upcoming 2.5 new features

Make sure you enable egging in all the usergroups you want. It's off by default.

Yes, it's better than it was, but there is still some oddness going on in some cases with the blending of images. I am working on it. This is my first time using the php GD graphics library to do stuff like this
